Troubleshooting

How to fix Waze not working

Waze is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach waze.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Refresh Waze on your phone

    If Waze is not working today on Android or iPhone, force close it, reopen it, and check that location access is allowed while you use the app.

  2. Check the live Waze status

    If you are checking is Waze down or is Waze down right now, this page shows operational, 13 outage reports in the last 24 hours, 100.00% uptime, and the last outage time, more than 24 hours ago; compare those figures with the Waze server status and a Waze down detector before you reinstall.

  3. Test your connection and DNS

    If you are asking is Waze working, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, then restart the router; a Waze network status check can show a wider problem. A search for Waze outage today 2026 can also reveal reports from other drivers.

While Waze is down: what to use instead

  • Google Maps It has live traffic and spoken turn-by-turn directions on Android and iPhone, so it is the quickest swap when you are already in the car and need a route home.
  • Apple Maps On an iPhone or through CarPlay it is already installed and shows traffic.
  • Offline maps in Google Maps Download the area you drive in before you leave; the route keeps working when your signal drops, though you lose live traffic.
  • Waze Live Map in a browser If only the app is failing, the live map on the website can still show you jams and reported hazards before you set off.

Verify if Waze is down on Mac by attempting to access the Waze website using a different network, like a mobile hotspot. If the map still fails to load, it indicates a potential outage on Waze's end.

Waze on iPhone and iPad

Fix
Resolve Waze issues on iOS by restarting the app or reinstalling it from the App Store. Ensure that Location Services are turned on for Waze in your iOS Settings and set to 'Always' or 'While Using the App'.
Check
Check if Waze is down on iOS by switching from Wi-Fi to cellular data to see if map data loads. If the app still fails to connect while other network-dependent apps work, Waze is likely experiencing an outage.
About

What happens when Waze goes down

Waze is a navigation app that uses live traffic reports to help you find routes and delays. Reliable uptime matters when a route depends on fresh traffic data.

Maps may load slowly, and routes can fail before you reach the road. In the last 24 hours, 13 user reports came in and uptime was 100.00%; those figures help separate a broad outage from a local problem. You may see stale ETAs or lose voice guidance until the connection returns.

Questions

Waze FAQ

Is Waze down right now?
Our live page lists Waze as operational, based on 13 crowd-sourced outage reports from the past 24 hours, with a 24-hour uptime of 100.00%. If you are asking, "is Waze down right now", check for reports about route loading or traffic updates, since a local phone or carrier problem can look like a wider failure. The last recorded outage was more than 24 hours ago, so the page gives you a current view instead of a guess.

What is the Waze server status?
A report count of 13 can point to a wider interruption, but a small regional problem may produce fewer reports. Waze network status can differ by location or app version, so compare route loading on WiFi and cellular before calling it a service outage.

Why is Waze not working today?
Waze not working today can result from GPS permissions, a weak connection, an old app build, or a temporary Waze outage. Check the live report count first, then switch connections and restart the app if reports stay low. Searches for "Waze outage today 2026" may point to a broader problem when many people report the same symptom within a short period.

How do I check if Waze is down?
Use this page as a Waze down detector, and check operational, 13, 100.00%, and more than 24 hours ago before changing settings on your phone. The report trend helps show if is Waze down is affecting many people or only your connection. For a quick status check, open Waze on another connection and see if the map loads, which also answers the question, "is Waze working".

How we track Waze

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Waze, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Waze, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Waze doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
